District Attorney MARITIME had several calls at his
Office yesterday from politicians some OF whom
favored Mr.. NicOll's candidacy and some were sup
porers of Colonel Fellows. Mr. MARITIME said In answer
to question by reporter Of THE TRIBUNE:
:" have received no letter from the Republican Con-
vcntion on relation their action in regard TO my
name. In fact not a single person ever spoke to mo
about the matter before the convention acted, ana
not consulted I'm any way. do not know why

Colonel Fellows has been in company with Mr. Mar
tine much Of the time since they were nominated on
the Democratic ticket. Mr.. MARITIME and SIR Ncol

Beat q Professional Jumper.

About z O'Clock last evening a large
crowd war drawn together in front Of the
Arion by a man ofthe name OF Reese, from
Logan, Utah, who was anxious to bet $50
with any man that he could beat him
jumping. Andrew Stinson, OF this city,
took him up and the agreement was that
Reese, who is a professional, should beat
Stinson in three straight jumps by two
feet to win. The crowd adjourned to lower
Main street in front of the Miners lumber
yard. Jack Mcdonald and Officer Buckley
supervised the preliminaries and the latter
held the stakes in a manner that evoked
the admiration of all present. The crowd
by this time had grown to enormous pro-
portions-wagons, sidewalks, roofs in the
vicinity all bearing their load OF interested
humanity, old and young Of both sexes
a noble tribute to the love of manly sports
that is the Distinguishing characteristic OF
this community. The men toed the mark
and Stinson let go of himself first to the
extent of thirty-four feet ten inches. This
was a corker for Reese, who only made a
record Of thirty-fve feet six inches, Just
four inches short Of reaching the double
eagle. Buckley impaired the stakes to
Stinson, who, elated by his victory, spent
nearly all his winnings in treating. while
the crestfallen professional retired to hunt

volante and Modesty the Winners of the
Large Stakes.
LOUISVILLE, May 18.-The attendance
at the Louisville Jockey Club grounds to-
day was fair, but the programme was a
disappointment. The Merchants stake,
which promised to be the greatest event,
dwindled down to a virtual walk-over for
Baldwin's Volante. Montana Regent,
Egmont and Weary were entered, but their
owner were afraid of the California horse,
and only Volante, Miss Ford and Elgin
started.
Volante galloped in an easy winner, Miss
Ford second and Elgin a bad third. The
track was somewhat heavy, the weather
bright and warm. Modesty and Volante
were the only favorites who won. Auto.
craft, Violet and Latin, respectively, four,
six and three to one. The choices were the
dark ones that walked away with the
money in other events. Cheatham's start
ing was MOI up to his usual standard. The
judges were Capt. Brown, Col. Clark and
Col. Faulkner.
First race, fve-eighths of a mile, for
maidens 2 years old. Autocrat got the
best start, and at t~hree-fourths was three
lengths ahead. He was never reached, and
finished first by three lengths, in 1:O4.
White was second; Biggoyet, third. The
favorites, Bertha and Grow, second. The
choices were not in the race after tho
stretch was reached.
Seven-eighths of a mile, selling. Elixir
Carter got of first to q bad start. Latin
won by a neck in 1882; Handy Andy, Sec
ond; Doctor. third.
Merchant stakes, one and one-eighth
miles. 81. 900 added by the merchants OF
Louisville. Of which $3.50 to second 500 to
third, $50 to fourth. There we're thirty
two entries and only three starters. Miss
Ford was off first, Elgin second and
Volante third. These POSITIONS were main
tanned to the three-fourths pole. Turning
into the stretch, they we're even, Lewis be-
ginning to whip Elgin. Miss Ford held
first to within ten lengths when Volante
moved forward winning easily by half a
length. Miss Ford second, Elgin third.

of-Way.
Yesterday afternoon, about 1 O'Clock
Sheriff Lloyd entered General Manager
Dana's office in the Montana Union building
and handed him a bulky package which, he
informed him, was the preliminary to legal
proceedings by the Montana Central
against the Montana Union. County At.
torney Dewitt happened to be in the of.
fee at the time, and as he is the legal ad-
wiser Of the latter road in Butte, General
Dana turned to him and asked him if he
had to read those documents.
"Not unless you want to-" al the re-
ply, and with that the General handed the
bundle over to Mr.. Dewitt with an air of
relief. The legal proceedings are an action
by the Montana Central compelling the
Montana Union to show cause why q writ
of prohibition should not issue against the
latter road to prevent it obstructing the
right-of.way through Silver Bow canyon.
The hearing is set for next Friday at Deer
Lodge. The action grows out of the recent
track-straightening anxiety that has taken
hold of the Montana Union in the aDy on

II can't tell you. But I don't see what

What Are the County Roads

The County Commissioners were in SEES
sion Yesterday. Mr.. Hall was absent on
account of Mrs. Halls sickness. Messrs.
Young and Schmidt spent the day trying
to find from the records of the county
what are the county roads OF Silver Bow.
They have 30 far been unable to locate
snv other than one from Silver Bow
Creek to the Catholic cemetery; one from
the Bell Shelter to the Nine-Mile House;
Lower Main street to the depot; one from
Silver Bow Junction to Smith & Williams
store in Norton's Gulch. Mr.. De Witt has
not been able to collect the authorities to
define what the rights OF the county are in
the public roads in accordance with the
instructions he received on Monday and
says it is one otthe most intricate problems
yet submitted tt ohm by the Commissioners.
